So They Called Him Hitler, So What? Grow Up, The Both of You!

You know, I am about sick to death of this childish back and forth between the unhinged left and the oh-so-outraged right on the name calling issue, especially where it concerns the use of the name of humanity’s most evil villain, Hitler. Yeah, they said (put latest politician here) is Hitler. But so what? Let’s […]

How Obama’s Big Labor Pals Warp the System

Last September the Senate refused to reverse a rules change made out of pocket by Obama’s National Mediation Board.

Virginia’s Junior Senator, Jim Webb, is already hanging up his senatorial career. One term was enough for the so-called moderate Virginia Democrat. He’s announced that he will not run for reelection.

Nancy Pelosi Calls for Ban on the Word Hate

One of the many frightening aspects of George Orwell’s 1984 is the way bureaucrats limit human thought by eliminating words from the language.

Now THERE’S Chutzpah: Obama Claims He hasn’t Raised Taxes?

John Kartch over at Americans for Tax Reform found President Obama’s claim that he hasn’t raised taxes a bit, shall we say, quixotic.

Tennessee County School Board Fires Teachers Union

Now this is more like it. Back in October of 2010 the Summer County, Tennessee School Board decertified the Sumner County Education Association (SCEA), the union for county teachers, because it no longer satisfied the law by counting as members fifty percent plus one of the total number of employees requiring a teaching certificate. This, […]

Pigford Pigout Is Illegal

When Comrade Obama promised to “spread the wealth around,” he didn’t mean indiscriminately.

An example of how he does […]
